Local musicians unable to get airplay on Austin s commerciallyowned radio stations will find respite in Affordable Sound Radio Online, launchingSeptember 1, 2008. The radio station which will be available online at AffordableSound.FM, willspecialize in playing artists that aren t heard on any other station.
While commercial radio is losing revenue and listenership every quarter, internetradio is growing at exponential rates. Internet Broadcasting Group and AffordableSound will work together to create a station that is thoroughly listenable,engaging and entertaining, said Affordable Sound co-owner Mike Marquardt.
Affordable Sounds specializes in high volume CD duplication, artist posters andcollateral and music distribution. The company which has traditionally providedartists with exposure through compilation CD s and events, sees internet radio as anew and highly viable venue to promote local artists.
People continue to seek a place to hear new artists Not just what record companieswant them to hear, but independent artists who are talented, progressive andinteresting, commented Internet Broadcasting Group vice-president Mark Lassoff.
The AffordableSound.FM Station will feature traditional music programming with fewercommercials and promotions than are found in commercial FM stations. Since the coststructure of operating a radio station on the internet is hundreds of thousands ofdollars lower than operating a terrestrial station, there is less need to sellcommercial advertising time.
Musicians who want their music to have exposure on the station will be able tosubmit their songs to Affordable Sound through their web site. Also, clients whoutilize Affordable Sound for their traditional CD Duplication services will havetheir music included in the radio station s rotation.
Affordable sound co-owners, Mike Marquardt and Will Evans will also host a weekly Top 10 style show which will be broadcast throughout the week as well as madeavailable as on-demand programming. The Top 10 program will be available through theAffordableSound.FM web site as well as Apple iTunes .
It s rough for independent artists, said Marquardt, Hopefully this station willmake it just a little bit easier for them to get them heard. I think people willreally enjoy listening too.
